Orderly tyrant

Under the swaying, chaotic lights, amidst the deafening music, men and women dressed in fashionable and revealing clothes shook their bodies to the intense rhythm created by the lights and music, allowing alcohol and dopamine to drive their brains, wantonly rubbing and colliding with each other's desires.

Suddenly—

A lithe black figure leaped onto the DJ booth in the flickering light.

The blue-haired, scantily clad DJ was just stunned when the manic music abruptly stopped, and the neon and laser lights also ceased their swaying. A deep voice came from the DJ booth:

“Routine inspection by the patrol team, everyone stand against the wall.”

Amidst panicked screams, the lights suddenly brightened, dispelling the darkness and exposing everyone in their frenzy to the light.

Three patrol officers in black patrol uniforms, holding electric batons, entered the bar, driving the crowd, the electric batons crackling.

“Everyone stand against the wall.”

“I’m talking to you, stand up.”

The middle-aged patrol officer on the DJ booth calmly watched the search operation below.

Compared to other patrol officers, his uniform was obviously more refined, and on his epaulettes, one could see three stars and a pair of wing-like patterns, clearly indicating the rank of a First-Class Patrol Supervisor.

“Officer, I am the general manager of this bar.”

A slightly overweight middle-aged man walked over, looked at the middle-aged patrol officer on the stage, and said with a smile, “May I ask for your name? Why did you suddenly come to search this small place tonight?”

Group Leader Han glanced at him expressionlessly and said, “Superior's orders, no comment.”

The general manager of Iron Stone Bar had no choice but to smile and say, “I was just being talkative. Officer, rest assured, we will definitely actively cooperate with your work.”

Group Leader Han glanced around and saw that the crowd in the bar had already gathered against the four walls. Only then did he jump off the stage, walk to the dance floor in the middle, and look at Lin Qing and the other two.

“Lin Qing, you check the bar area, Qin Qin, you check that group of people, Wang Hengyi, you check those people over there, I'll take care of the rest.”

After assigning the work, the four people in charge of the search began to act.

This bar wasn't particularly large. Including the bartenders and waiters, there were only about a hundred people in total.

Even if they had to conduct facial recognition and fingerprint identification one by one to verify their identities, it wouldn't take long for four people to work together.

The current database is very comprehensive, and there is no need to check ID cards to verify and confirm.

Occasionally, when encountering customers who were drunk and uncooperative with the search, formal patrol officers who had passed the assessment could easily subdue them with their skills.

Of course, electric batons had to be used in emergencies.

Lin Qing hung the electric baton on his waist, took the work phone issued by the Patrol Bureau, walked to the crowd near the bar, looked around, and said:

“First, check the Blue Scarf Gang members. You, you, you, and you, all of you come over and stand properly. Wipe your fingers clean.”

As he spoke, he pointed out several people wearing blue scarves one by one.

The faces of those who were pointed at were a little aggrieved and indignant.

This bar was regarded as their Blue Scarf Gang's base. Next to them were the beautiful women they had been holding in their arms, boasting countless times about how awesome they and the Blue Scarf Gang were, but in the blink of an eye, they were dragged out by these patrol dogs to cooperate with the investigation.

Especially this kid, who didn't even have an epaulet, was obviously just a temporary investigator, yet he dared to be so arrogant?

But with other patrol officers present, they could only grit their teeth and walk out.

However, one person couldn't help but mutter in a low voice.

“Damn, even a temporary dog dares to act like a big shot…”

He kept his voice down to avoid being heard by other patrol officers in the distance. Anyway, temporary patrol officers had no law enforcement power, so he wasn't afraid of being cursed at.

“Huh?”

Lin Qing's eyes turned cold, and he suddenly kicked the person's calf, causing him to fall to the ground in pain. The man was furious and was about to stand up when he heard a crackling sound.

He looked up and saw a black electric baton stopping in front of his eyes, crackling.

His body trembled, and he subconsciously shrank back, swallowing the swear words that were about to come out of his mouth.

“Raise your head.”

Lin Qing looked at the other party mockingly, performed facial recognition with his phone, pressed his fingerprint, and then suddenly kicked the other party in the face. The hard boot sole twisted and broke his nose, causing blood to gush out. He covered his nose, curled up on the ground, and wailed.

The patrol team in the distance glanced over here but ignored it and continued working.

Not to mention that Lin Qing was a First-Class Patrol Officer, even if he was just a temporary patrol officer, it wouldn't matter if he kicked a few disobedient troublemakers.

Of course, temporary patrol officers had no official status and were not valued by the Patrol Bureau, so they didn't dare to offend people casually.

Although violently attacking a temporary patrol officer performing his duties was also a crime of obstructing official duties, being beaten in private was just a common brawl, and the Patrol Bureau would not specifically intervene.

However, formal patrol officers would be severely punished even if they were attacked in private. If their personal safety was seriously endangered, they could even be sentenced to life imprisonment.

Lin Qing continued to identify and record one by one with his phone.

After killing the chicken to scare the monkey, the others were much more obedient, even those Blue Scarf Gang troublemakers were honest.

“Order.”

Lin Qing muttered and summoned the Nega-Entropy panel, glancing at the [Current Order Level], which had not changed at all.

As expected.

A few small gangsters were not a threat to him at all. Even if they didn't know he was a formal patrol officer now, since the Blue Scarf Gang dared to establish itself so openly, they must have acquaintances in the Public Security Bureau and the Patrol Bureau. After inquiring, they would know about him.

Once they knew he was a formal patrol officer, with just this little bit of hatred, a few small gangsters wouldn't dare to retaliate against him.

Naturally, it wouldn't cause the order level to drop.

He had already confirmed this in his previous life.

As long as others couldn't threaten him, even if he had enemies, it wouldn't cause the order level to drop.

In his previous life, he was able to survive the apocalypse because of the [Current Order Level]'s warning, which had helped him many times.

…

In the shadows on the other side of the bar.

Two figures were crouching here with their heads lowered, their lips moving slightly, huddled together, and whispering.

“Old Luo, is there a chance to escape through the back door?”

“I've always had people guarding the front and back doors, but now both front and back doors have been blocked. I don't know if the patrol team has taken the wrong medicine. They suddenly came to search.”

“Damn, before you formed the Blue Scarf Gang, didn't you say you had acquaintances in the Public Security Bureau and the Patrol Bureau who were your informants?”

“Brother Jiang, today's search team is a temporary operation. I didn't expect it either.”

“What do we do now? Damn, I'm just hiding here for a few days, taking a rare breather, how could I be so unlucky?”

“Brother Jiang, if you dare to force your way out, you can still escape through the old underground passage.”

“Force my way out? Didn't you see that First-Class Patrol Supervisor standing there? He looks like a senior group leader with a lot of experience. It wouldn't be surprising if he had learned battle techniques. Once he uses battle techniques, I'm definitely not his opponent.”

“Brother Jiang, I dared to use this bar as a gang activity site, of course, I left a backup plan. I can create chaos for you. If you're fast enough, you can take advantage of the chaos to escape.”

“…Okay, then break through towards the main entrance from the direction of this temporary patrol officer. The hope should be the greatest.”

“He beat my people. Brother Jiang, you can be ruthless and kill him if possible. Anyway, he's just a small temporary patrol officer.”

“No problem, I don't like him either.”

…

[Order Level decreased by 0.2]

While identifying and inspecting one by one, at this moment, a line of blood-red small characters suddenly appeared in front of Lin Qing's eyes.

“Huh?”

Lin Qing's expression changed slightly, and he instantly became alert. His left hand continued to operate the phone for identification, while his right hand inconspicuously touched the switch of the electric baton and quietly gripped it tightly.

Suddenly—

“Bang!”

A spherical lampshade on the ceiling above the dance floor suddenly burst open, and thick smoke spewed out from it, along with a large amount of colorful confetti used for parties, fluttering down.

For a time, the line of sight of half the bar was obscured.

At the same time, a strong figure suddenly rushed out from behind the bar, and with extraordinary agility and speed, he flashed across the dance floor in the blink of an eye!

And the direction he was sprinting was exactly the direction of the main entrance where Lin Qing was!
